Mostly Good, Poor Finish

I really enjoyed this drama for the first 20 or so episodes. After that, the story seemed to become slightly messy, scenarios didn't make a lot of sense (particularly towards the end) and it just felt very rushed. The ending really disappointed me too. Some examples of when it felt quite rushed included Mingye's disappearance after the lightning incident that lost him his arm. Also when crown prince Jun was "killed" it was swept past and forgotten about. The last episode felt like a rushed mess, and it was quite confusing.

E.g. second couple die, magically reappear at the end with a one line explanation of how they could still be alive (which i didnt even notice at first and had to rewatch), Master Mu supposedly gave up his spiritual energy to crown price Jun (which felt like a sacrafice) but still turned up at the wedding to take the bride away (i assume to the world she came from) with literally no explanation of what was going on. I can't accept the fact that the character would just choose to leave everything behind. The fact that a character that was always portrayed as a good character (master Wu) could so quickly turn so bad when he showed no signs of his past love affecting him ever before.

This sounds negative but I promise it isn't. Most of the drama flows well and the story makes outstanding sense. A really enjoyable drama for those parts!
